On March 20, 2017 the first “Introduction to Table Tennis” class began. The class is a three-week course in table tennis basics covering ball control, grip, ready position, footwork, rules for serving and creating more under spin or top spin on a player’s serves. This class was sponsored by the Robson Ranch Ping Pong Club and met on Mondays during the club’s regular time period (noon to 2:30 p.m.) from March 20 through April 3.

This class is planned to be the first in a series to refresh and improve a player’s table tennis skills.

The “Ping Pong” play times are Monday, Wednesday and Friday at noon to 2:30 p.m. and on Sunday 10:00 a.m. to noon. We encourage you to simply show up at these times and be greeted by people who are already seeing the benefits.
